A few months ago, I was browsing the Amazon website and came across a sale on the NYDJ brand of jeans. I've actually heard a lot about this brand...how it's supposed to be slenderizing, comfortable, blah blah blah (you know, the stuff everyone says about every product). When I've looked the jeans up online before, they were always like $95-$150 a pair. (You can forget me EVER paying that much for any pair of jeans!!) So, you can imagine my surprise when I found a pair on Amazon advertised for $25. Immediately, the bargain shopper I am, clicked the link. Whoa...okay....no wonder they were $25. Turns out, the only jean for that price was a python print skinny jean in dark grey/black. And so. I pondered. And. I pondered. I finally decided to purchase them...simply because I wanted to try out the brand and figured if I didn't like them, I'd just send them back.
I waited 2 whole days for them...(that's right...I'm a PRIME member...). My mom was at my house when they arrived, and being the "Nosey Nellie" that she is, asked what I got. So, I told her that I ordered some python print jeans, and she looked utterly shocked.
Fast forward a few days later, and I'm getting ready for work and annoyed that I can't seem to find anything to wear. I see those pants eyeing me, and I decide to put them on. I had done quite a bit of research about size when I purchased them because I've never worn skinny jeans in my life. I'm not that hip in my attire...my goal in style is ultimate comfort. (My absolute favorite thing to wear is jeans and an old T-shirt). I put them on, and the company (NYDJ) was completely truthful. They were exactly true to size and fit perfectly. The jeans themselves were a bit snug down the hip and leg...appropriate for skinny jeans...I just don't like my clothes clingy. But you know? These jeans were super comfortable!! And soft! It really was amazing. So, I find a matching shirt, and out the door I go!
When I got to work, my co-worker immediately commented on them. We chatted about the oddity of skinny jeans and how ironically you'd think those suckers make you look like a blimp, but others comment on the slenderizing effects. (Yes, we have VERY intellectually stimulating conversations at the office). I will admit that I was extremely self-conscious in them all day, mostly due to my own insecurity. But overall, I decided that I found a deal in those python print jeans.
Perhaps the most gratifying thing of all about my python jeans is the fact that when I put them on, I start thinking I look like Tori Spelling. It's the magic of the pants. I fantasize about wearing my (should be) expensive brand name jeans, sashaying down a sidewalk with an oversized bag, oversized sunglasses, and an attitude bigger than life. It's like I really am the ultra hip supermodel mom not having a care in the world! HA!! These jeans came with QUITE an imagination!! Honestly, there's just no way to be ordinary while wearing them. So when I'm feeling all daring and adventurous, I take these jeans out for a spin and I am NEVER disappointed. I love my python print NYDJ skinny jeans!! :)
